I don't need the lock_kernel, but I considered that approach for the use
count handling. I'll probably put it into my CVS tree but (try to) leave it
out of the patches I send to Linus.
I already have a fairly large set of additions to compatmac.h - see
mtd/compatmac.h

Probably. But _only_ if the merge gets into 2.2.17 too - if not then I
still need to keep my own copy, and there's no point in doing it.
